I am using the Objective-C for my application. In my
application I use the NSPrintPanel to print the document. In the
NSPrintPanel user can save the document using the "Save as pdf"
option of NSPrintPanel, and a new dialog is open to save the
document. In this dialog user can choose any path to save the file.
So i want to get this path selected by user . I have go through the
NSPrintPanel API's but could not get any api who can give me the
saved path. Sp please tell me in details how can i get this saved
path from NSPrintPanel.
Short answer: You don't. All that is handled by the print panel for
you. The print panel is supposed to produce output that looks the same
as if it was printed. So what it does is it asks your app to do the
drawing for printing, but gives you a PDF graphics context to draw
into. You just do the same as when printing to paper.
If you want to do your own custom PDF export, add that to the "Save
as..." menu item and use PDFKit or similar to set up a PDF the way you
want and draw to it.
